There is overall wear to the glaze, especially to the center and the rim. There are some pinpoint imperfections and minor glaze pulls. The footring has been pierced with a very small aperture. The dish is secured within two (rusty) metal straps forming an X and set with a metal hook for suspension. The actual colour is less gray, more saturated green than the catalogue illustration suggests.
